Rev. Cawthon-Freels invites us to examine Thomas from a new perspective. Maybe he’s not the doubter we try to write him off as — especially since he seems to understand who Jesus is better than the other disciples do.
Rev. Kali Cawthon-Freels is Pastoral Resident at Williamsburg Baptist Church in Virginia and leader of the Faithful Pride Initiative at Good Faith Media. She is also the author of “Reclamation.”
